Hi all, I'm puzzled by this warning from lintian:
chrisc@xaphod:/var/cache/pbuilder/result$ lintian -Ivi --pedantic angband_3.2.0-1_i386.changes N: Setting up lab in /tmp/esv0j1oUBP ... N: Processing 3 packages... N: ---- N: Processing changes file angband_3.2.0-1_i386 (version 1:3.2.0-1) ... N: ---- N: Processing source package angband (version 1:3.2.0-1) ... P: angband source: direct-changes-in-diff-but-no-patch-system .gitmodules and 7 more N: N: The Debian diff.gz contains changes to files or creation of additional N: files outside the debian directory. Keeping the changes as separate N: patches under the control of a patch system allows for more fine grained N: control over them. The package will also more easily support possible N: future source package formats if all changes outside the debian N: directory are stored as patches. N: N: If the diff only creates new files that can be copied into place by the N: package build rules, consider putting them in the debian directory N: rather than using a patch system. N: N: Severity: pedantic, Certainty: certain ... is it possible to configure lintian to ignore .git*, like the -i option to dpkg-buildpackage?
